Kids get in on the Mardi Gras activities in Eunice. The Eunice Lil’ Mardi Gras is a Courir de Mardi Gras and chicken chase is just for kids. This is a unique opportunity for children ages 1-14 to do Mardi Gras just like the grownups. They are encouraged to be in full costume, mask, and capuchon. The day starts early with the Mardi Gras run beginning at 9am. Participants will arrive back at the Eunice Recreation Complex at 12pm for lunch, then depart for Harris Field at 1:15 for the chicken chase. The day ends with a children’s parade in downtown Eunice at 3pm.
